Huxley was asked to leave the show after failing to impress the judging panel with his interpretation of a Dan Hong pandan chiffon cake. Ellie Paxton-Hall and Dani Venn managed to retain their spots in the contest.

The eliminated contestant later told the Herald Sun: "Dessert, pork crackling and onion rings are the ingredients [the judges love]. If you could make a pork cake with onion rings on it, you would be set.

"[Desserts] are not something I'm particularly good at because I'm a type one diabetic so I can't eat desserts."

Huxley also revealed that he believes some of his fellow contestants will be pleased that he has left the show because he was such a strong competitor, saying: "There was certainly a vibe among the contestants that I had a strong chance of making it a fair way and I would think there's a sigh of relief from some of them now."
